Scientific paper

The history of astronomy in England up to the start of the reign of Queen Elizabeth I is outlined. Secondary sources have been used and the article highlights the most important names and events as they occur. The termination date of 1558 was chosen because it is the dividing line between the old and new astronomy in England. During this period, astrology was considered to be on an equal footing with astronomy, and therefore as important. Many of the astronomers of this period were astrologers and vice versa. A bibliography gives the major sources used.
